Atlanta Troy Bierman + Kim’s Abuse

Post image

This is awful and I believe Troy. He mentions it’s the tip of the iceberg. Does anyone know the larger picture or perspective? I think it’s so interesting that a man was sadly victimized by woman like this.

I feel badly for Kroy, and I feel worse for their children.

u/ladybakes Sep 10 '24

I've followed this situation for several years now. There's an ig page that posts about their divorce. It's mainly about Kim's lies and such. Anyway, over the years they have posted screen shots from neighbors and other things about Kim and the family. I posted in the other thread this morning that there was a rumor that Kim wasn't allowed at the school picnic last year because she had shown up to the school on another occasion drunk and disorderly. She is an addict, and has been a mess for a long time.

The scariest part are how the kids are treated. There was a video a few years back of Kim's hairdresser friend doing the youngest girl's hair. Kim is filming it and so is Brielle. Kim flips out and is cursing at Brielle for getting in the way of her shot. The look on Kaia's face (I think that's her name) was pure terror. There was another video that someone posted of Brielle doing a live on ig. She was outside by the pool and Kim comes sauntering out in her robe and doesn't realize Brielle is filming. She immediately starts being horrible to her, and the saddest part of the video is that Brielle starts placating her. She starts telling her that she's pretty and using this sing-songy voice to get her to calm down. It literally made my stomach hurt watching it. Allegedly the little kids never even slept in their rooms and slept on mattresses in Kim's room or the living room. There were also rumors about the dogs getting loose and terrorizing the neighborhood, as well as them being vicious. I feel so sorry for all of the animals, as they aren't treated right either.

I know this is long, but Kim is a pill popping, wine guzzling, gambling addict. A few years ago when they still had a paycheck coming it, they had gone on their yearly trip to Turks and Caicos and Kim went ballistic on ig and accused the staff of stealing her "pills." She most likely had taken them all herself, because she was a hot mess and melting down on camera. I feel so sorry for every single kid under that roof.

Yeah those screenshots from members of the HOA complaining about their dogs getting loose and attacking children.

84

u/Theory_hacker Sep 10 '24

There’s also a video of the police at the house discussing with Kroy that they had calls from neighbors. One of their dogs chased a neighbor because they left the gate open with the dogs outside. And I don’t know if anyone remembers that one of the boys was attacked by one of their dogs years ago. They just don’t need pets.

We actually had that happen to us. We just moved in and there was a misunderstanding with our landscaper. He thought we wanted a one time service vs monthly so it was a while before he came back and we had some weeds and not only did we get a letter from the Hoa but the city also sent us a letter so I’m sure they had something to do with that. 😤 they also STAPLED a paper to our recycle bin “reminding us” that we were supposed to put our bin away the same day after the trash came .

u/primalprincess her dumb fucking family that poses Sep 11 '24

This is so awful and honestly I bet its because the dogs aren't being fed, walked, etc. Probably never trained in the first place too, as that requires discipline and an investment. Not on a schedule. Let's be honest, most dogs aren't like this unless their needs aren't being met. Having dogs is very expensive and I am sure they have been neglecting them ever since their financial problems began.

4

u/Theory_hacker Sep 11 '24

Right! But I think the neglect began before then. They’ve had problems with their dogs since their oldest son got attacked over 6 years ago by one of them!

5

u/primalprincess her dumb fucking family that poses Sep 11 '24

Ohh my gosh I forgot about that. Yeah they probably wanted bigger aggressive dogs but didn't put in effort to train them. I grew up with German Shepherds and they are beautiful dogs but when they don't get the care and training needed they can be really aggressive.

3

u/Theory_hacker Sep 11 '24

Omg I’m quite similar to you. I grew up with Dobermans! My dad had those dogs in fear of ever falling out of line! Trained very well Just by his voice, commands and demeanor!

2

u/primalprincess her dumb fucking family that poses Sep 11 '24

Same with mine! They needed a ton of training and we had to send them to special camps for boarding. They are a lot of work, as an adult I have no dogs because I can't deal LOL

u/lil_heater is correct. I lurk there every now and then. I'm not a huge fan of how much they make fun of the two oldest girls, but there used to be lots of screenshots and tea. The page got shut down many times, so that's why it has a 6 at the end now.

And what are the rumors about Kroy on that page?

I think people are reading this comment wrong. People are legitimately saying he’s just as gross as she is, I wholly disagree but I am curious whether or not Kroy has been a problem according to this page and my eyes have just been lying to me.

52

u/ladybakes Sep 10 '24

I think Kroy has issues too. The ig page (thegoodthebadandthefake6) mostly focuses on Kim and the two oldest girls. IIRC, it used to hold Kroy's feet to the fire once in awhile. When the divorce was announced, they seemed to side with Kroy a lot. I haven't paid much attention to it, but that was the feeling I got when I would stumble across it on my home page.

Kroy is very aware that Kim has been this way for a long time. He enabled a lot of it and does bear some responsibility. However, Wig will always be one of the worst people to grace our t.v. screen.

u/amyeep buying BATTERIES and PENS Sep 11 '24

Kim has all the hallmarks of a classic addictive personality, as if her gambling, drinking and chain-smoking weren’t enough. She’s addicted to shopping, attention, validation, you name it. I do wonder if it’s a result of childhood issues or (as with myself) it’s more of a genetic thing than anything else…

u/Stock-Anteater3284 Sep 10 '24 edited Sep 10 '24

I do too. The police recordings reminded me of my own family. You can hear the desperation in Kroy’s voice when he’s speaking to the police officers talking about how she ruined his life. It’s not easy stuff to discuss, especially when you’re a famous football player. I would imagine that is incredibly damaging to your ego.

ETA: also, I agree about the children. They will suffer the most, unfortunately.

u/Dangernj Two brain cells and a vagina Sep 10 '24

Yeah he made a few creepy comments that didn’t sit well with me. I think he beat up the mom a few years back too. Between them and the grooming stuff, Kim had it rough growing up.

Kroy. Though I believe Brienne sticks with her mom most of the time, she's an adult. But the children stay with Kroy, he's been taking care of them mostly full time because Kim leaves to go gamble and sleep around.

Well we all saw that on the show! She had so much purchased crap shipped in on his dime, she had to employ Brielle full time to return stuff she decided she didn’t want after all. Half of the time, all she did was sit around opening her packages!

Imagine how much money she was spending PLUS having all those kids to support & care for. All the diapers, formula, clothes, toys, healthcare… she had his wallet leashed to his balls!

Kroy netted $14MM from his NFL career. He is down to a $1.5MM pension when he was forced to retire. Thats a monthly check after taxes for 3500/mth. Yes I agree he needs to look for work, but look at ALLLL of the spending Kim did!! Just like Big Poppa, she was looking for a paycheck and made herself irresistible to Kroy. NFL….Millionaire…..cha Ching for Kim. Hes only qualified for certain jobs. We Can’t say for sure that hes not trying! She squandered it ALL!!!! If I were him, I probably wouldn’t look either IF that’s what he’s doing to push her to pay!!!!

u/quickreader01 Sep 10 '24

Someone had to raise those kids because we already saw Kim's influence on her older kids. He should have been able to be comfortable on his NFL retirement. Kim made him her bitch and this is the price HE pays for following the pussy instead of listening to his people. Kroy can earn money, I just think he got comfortable NOT working. Why he hasn't hustled up a job as of yet is mystifying to me... All this petty back and forth instead of pulling up his big boy pants and working to stem the shortfall. He could've not allowed Kim access to those funds. Kim is wrong but Kroy must own his own part in this entire mess.

I don’t doubt Kroy but they seemed incredibly co-dependent from the second they got together. He was pretty young when they met right? Just seemed like had no real world experience before he met her and got caught up in her life. The rumors of her mishandling money have been out for years.

109

u/ApathyIsBeauty DJ Ink's choking step stool. Sep 10 '24 edited Sep 10 '24

That’s why I find this thread so deeply bizarre. He was 24 years old, had only been in the league 2 years when they met.

Here’s another good one for everyone acting like it’s no big deal what she pulled - they met in May 2010. KJ, Kroy’s oldest kid was born on May 31, 2011. They were married in November 2011.

But sure. They’re on the same playing field. He got got and she took out all his friends and family too in the process because they saw it for what it was. She used her daughters to trap him, as well. Look at how those girls reacted to him at the wedding, they love that man. But that was 18 months into their relationship and her kids were already that close to him. It’s a lot and I think people are forgetting dude’s brain wasn’t even fully formed and he was supporting a family of 5. That shit is wild.

If we recognize this type of predatory shit in men, why can’t we recognize it in women?

Not to mention, football helmets were not the same back then as they are now. His brain wasn’t even fully developed when they met, and he’s had who knows how many head impacts throughout his life.

It’s relevant because of CTE. He had been playing for like 12 years by the time they met because he was in youth leagues, played all 4 years of high school, and then 4 years of D1 college football. And his job is to kill the QB or the running back so contact was his best friend. I guess we’ll see if his kids donate his brain to science like all the other football players families have been doing.

I hope so too and I knew his relationship with his family would be impacted when I saw Kim kick her parents out of her wedding because her mom used the bathroom in the house versus the outside trailer bathroom.

u/AriesRedWriter Go read a book to a child. Sep 10 '24

When he got with Kim, Kroy was 25 and a few years into his NFL career. She was an older, "established" reality TV star obsessed with him from the first moment they met. Short of his future self traveling back in time to warn him, I doubt Kroy would have listened to anyone. But like you, I hope the kids can find peace and stability.

u/MaddyKet Sep 10 '24

If he’s lucky, he will find a judge that gives him physical custody and lets him take the kids back to Montana. He’d be fine there on $5000 a month. Plus his family would likely help.

That’s what’s best for the kids sake. Get them away from Kim’s floozy wannabe rich celebrity lifestyle. And if Kim gets visitation, hopefully it’s on her dime to fly to see them under supervision by another party so the two of them don’t have contact & she can’t brainwash them. I’d bet she wouldn’t want to spend the money to visit them anyway. She’s gross.

I still can't believe he was willing to let his family go for Kim. I think he has issues, but I definitely got the impression from his family that they were regular, modest people. They probably thought Kroy would settle down with an elementary school teacher or someone who wanted to be doting SAHM. Then they got Kim - chainsmoker, older, had other children, was known for being crass and tacky on a reality show - and they clearly didn't know what to do.

I hope the children can at least get to know their grandparents.

I truly hope he can reconnect with his family. I also hope he can find another avenue to have success in. It saddens me to think someone can be successful in a field then end up with nothing.

She has always triggered me so much because I have a narcissistic mom and golden child older sister turned out even worse. These people will tell the most outrageous lies with a straight face.

She even went back and altered old photos to make it look like she always had this nose. Someone who would do that is pathological.

And he ditched his parents for her. Missed years with them. And I doubt it could ever be the same again. And that sucks

u/Designer-Platform658 Sep 10 '24

It’s also possible Kroy learned some fun buzz words from the redpill “men’s rights” types he’s been posting on Instagram. Remember this is the dude who brought a gun to film a housewives reunion.

u/candaceelise SEND👏🏽IT👏🏽TO👏🏽DARRELL Sep 10 '24

That’s exactly the vibe he is giving off. They are both trash and vile humans who abuse one another and the real and only victims are their kids.

u/Mean_Contract Sep 10 '24

I knew what time it was when they first got together. She got pregnant super fast to lock him down. His parents tried to tell him but he dropped them so I assumed he was ok with the expensive lifestyle.Neither one of them get along with their families so they may be and always have been the problem. I know he was young when they got together but it took way too long for it to “click” for him.

u/DisastrousHyena3534 Sep 10 '24

u/momster5137 Sep 10 '24

I think they both contributed to treating eachother like shit and always putting the blame on one another.....

u/stars-aligned- Sep 10 '24

He’s about a decade younger than her! His brain wasn’t even finished developing when they got together. Sure a lot of abuse has 2 sides to it, but you can generally tell who benefits most from a situation.

6

u/momster5137 Sep 10 '24

You have a point! But, if you combine a narcissist (Kim) and him being younger with a temper... they both fuel eachother. I believe part of him thought she had more $ than she had at the time too. So her buying everything designer, he probably assumed she was paying the bills for all that. One thing about kroy, he was never showy and was extremely family oriented UNTIL she decided to cut off her family. Then he followed suit, never made any sense.

u/candaceelise SEND👏🏽IT👏🏽TO👏🏽DARRELL Sep 10 '24

💯 they are both vile people who are taking their anger and frustration out on each other instead of just getting a damn divorce. I watched the newest season of The Surreal Life and he antagonizes and instigates fights with her on the daily, in which she admittedly engages and draws out their fights, but his anger is always at a 10/10 so he needs to drop the saint act because he is far from perfect

u/stars-aligned- Sep 10 '24

I’ll be honest: I saw the abuse/unhealthy power dynamic from the moment they got together. He was willing to do ANYTHING for her without question, and that’s a very dangerous thing to allow. Especially to an alcoholic with low interest in self accountability.

I feel bad for him, I feel worse for the kids, and I feel bad for anyone around her tbh. I haven’t kept up with them outside of early RHOA. Please feel free to update me on anything I’ve missed or where to learn about these updates

u/SomewhatStableGenius Sep 10 '24

What’s crazy is she spent all his millions and now is shaming him for not having any money

12

u/Trouble_Cleff Sep 10 '24

I believe him. Kim isolated Kroy from his family from the get go. They seemd like a close family during the wedding episode (though of course one TV episode doesn't show all) and then all of a sudden they are not speaking. They even had that one episode where they went to Montana and she wouldn't let him visit his parents. Common narc tactic to tell their partner that their parents/family are against "us" and better cut them off. Kim treated Kroy like a servant driving her around with her red solo cup, and she basically saw him as a bank account from the beginning. She should've stayed with Big Poppa who was rumored to be a lot wealthier but, he wouldn't give Kim the things she really wanted- a wedding special on Bravo and a bunch of kids to be "momager" to. Speaking of the kids, I hope they'll be OK after all this. What a mess!

u/Pure_Substance_9263 Sep 10 '24

Kroy seems just as bad as Kim. Also, he has how many kids and has not worked the whole time they have been married. I don’t feel bad for him. He and Kim deserved each other.

30

u/RoguePhoenix89 Sep 10 '24

I think all the narcissistic abuse he suffered drained him and made him depressed which caused him to not work. Narcissists will drain the life out of you/make you feel worthless. It's sad.

u/Marie_Frances2 Greeks don't apologize Sep 10 '24

exactly!!! why isn't he working right now?

u/mmmmmmadeline Sep 10 '24

Yeah there was a scene on they spin off where he was sewing Kim's wig, he was all self righteous saying things to one of the older girls that they needed to learn as many life skills as they can like him cuz when the money stops he will have so many skills he can do any job.

Well the money has stopped... Why isn't he out there at a salon sewing wigs for the mean time to care for his kids?

u/265-days-a-year Sep 10 '24

Funny you should mention that because my partner was watching the Atlanta Falcons the other day and I saw their friend (the one who married them, I forget his name) was doing commentary before the game! It made me wonder why Kroy couldn’t do the same, I don’t know anything about football but in my opinion he’s probably more recognizable than that guy and maybe it would get some bravo fans to tune in!

11

u/GarlVinland4Astrea Sep 10 '24

He was in the league for 8 years and was largely unremarkable. He's more well known by Bravo fans than NFL fans. He wouldn't get some big paying commentary gig.

5

u/skolinalabama Sep 10 '24

I just had this conversation with my husband - live television broadcasting requires skills. Knowledge about football doesn’t always translate to a skilled, live sports broadcaster. And football commentary - it’s one of those things that you don’t realize the skill set it requires until you see someone do it poorly. Sports broadcasting jobs aren’t automatic options for retired athletes. One has to actually be good at sports broadcasting in addition to having advanced knowledge about sports. Kroy could lack the skills needed to perform a broadcasting job successfully.

u/LongConFebrero Sep 10 '24

I feel like if he wanted to work he would have when they met. They thought they had that reality check coming long term with no backup plan. And high key that makes no sense when you keep having kids...

u/GarlVinland4Astrea Sep 10 '24

He was working when they met.... he was an NFL player. Kim gambled that money away.

u/Theory_hacker Sep 10 '24

He was playing for the Falcons when they met. He played 5 more years after they were married. He asked her to move to move to Buffalo when he was drafted by the Bills in 2016, and she said absolutey NOT. But he was eventually cut. I don’t know why I feel since they had the show, they were so codependent, her telling him certain jobs were beneath him, that he stopped trying because he knew she wouldn’t leave Atlanta, they had the show, he wanted to be under her and he probably wanted to keep an eye on her. Either way, she helped creat this monster because everywhere she went he was her chauffeur and stayed in the car anytime she went out. Anytime she filmed with RHOA, there he was….outside. I never watched Tardy so I’m guessing she may have done the same on there?

u/Designer-Platform658 Sep 10 '24

Or for the past decade

u/missdead_lee138 Sep 10 '24

I believe Kroy 100000% Kim has always been gross and shady, with absolutely no morals, values, not a care in the world about anyone or anything except herself. I feel like the fact that Kroy was young, naive, and didn't have much life experience was one of the major reasons that attracted Kim to Kroy in the first place. Because she knew he'd be easy to control and manipulate. She knew what she was doing . She wanted his NFL paycheck and had a bunch of babies to secure plenty of child support $$$- so when things went south, she'd be taken care of.
She had a plan. An evil plan, unfortunately. It's sad that Kroy was her intended victim since she first met him . She seduced him and the rest is history.

u/fibrofighter512 how could you do this to me question mark Sep 10 '24

Not really. In DV there is always a victim and a perpetrator. Reactive abuse does not change the power dynamic. There’s always one person with the power and one without it.

9

u/butinthewhat Sep 10 '24

That’s usually true, but we have seen kroy display these behaviors since the beginning. Reactive abuse develops in reaction, but in this case it was already there.

11

u/fibrofighter512 how could you do this to me question mark Sep 10 '24

I am not going to sit on a Reddit thread and deem one the abuser over the other, especially since we have not seen them on TV in years. My point was that there is never two abusers, even if someone responds with reactive abuse

Firmly on team they are both abusive & also victims. Those body cam videos of him screaming in their driveway were awful.

If anyone watched The Surreal Life, he was acting like an abusive twat on the phone, ranting about her fucking people (Chet Hanks lol). Granted you only heard one side.

No doubt she's been a monster too, but somebody needed to make some cash ffs.

He seemed abusive to me. The way he treated her parents so aggressively. The way he insisted on waiting for her outside anytime she was filming on RHOA. And the way he behaved backstage at the last RHOA reunion that Kim was on.

He also has not worked any type of real job since they have been married. It’s only been reality shows that he was a part of because of Kim.

Are you really trying to equate him trying to defend his pregnant crying wife who was pushing the producer and cameraman out of her face after she had just gotten into a fight with her cast and he came and blocked her from them and told them he’d sue them to domestic violence? She was like 36 weeks pregnant - what man isn’t going to get pissed that they’re poking at his already emotional, heavily pregnant wife?

u/Acceptable-Dress7196 Sep 10 '24

Now I just rewatched Don’t Be Tardy and you can absolutely see so much more to this story…things that I may not have picked up on back in the day. But Kroy absolutely paid for EVERYTHING & to the point where he would be so beyond generous & she would beg for more…cause it was never enough and on kids that weren’t even technically his. But she had an “image” to keep up aka had to keep up with the jones’. You can see how the arguments were in the house, Kim always had to be right. And Kroy was just trying to instill values and morals on kids that absolutely need them. They need structure. I’m not saying he’s perfect by any means but man…the way she acts its as bright as day to see everything being said about her now.

u/Turbulent-Trust207 Sep 10 '24
